The Alpha: Claiming His Enemy's Daughter novel Chapter 123

Chapter 123: HE HAD THE URGE TO TOUCH IT

"Wake up! Alpha!" Will was knocking on the door for a while now, but Cane did not even make any movement from the inside, which made him anxious, because he knew the alpha was a light sleeper, there was no way he was sleeping through this commotion that he created. "Alpha! If you don’t answer, I will tear down the door!"

It was not every day sight to find Will so worked up like this, but judging from the current situation, he was assuming the worst.

However, thankfully, before Will could burst the door with his shoulder, it was opened from inside and he went through, almost bumping into one of the pillars of the bed. He blinked his eyes and looked at Cane, who was standing at the door frame. His expression was indiscernible.

"Alpha, I have been knocking at the door for a while now, but you didn’t answer, so I thought something has happened to you."

"I was sleeping," Cane said simply.

Will didn’t believe that, since when did he sleep until he was ignorant of his own surroundings, but then from the corner of his eyes, he saw red color. Iris was still sleeping and only then did he get it. He forgot that last night the alpha had told him to call Iris over.

Even so, it still didn’t make any sense why he could have overslept. "You have an appointment to buy the water magic stone," he reminded him.

"Yes, I remember," Cane said languidly, as he waved his hand, gesturing for Will to go out.

After that, Will didn’t say anything anymore, even though he felt it was weird for him to oversleep. His acute insomnia was not a secret. He could stay up for three days and three nights straight and even if he tried to sleep after that, it wouldn’t last more than a few hours.

Amee and Grace were so worried about this and tried to concoct him some sleeping pills, unfortunately nothing worked, but he overslept this morning? It was inconceivable.

However, the same thought plagued Cane’s mind right now. He stared at Iris, who was still sleeping, curling her body, while the little lizard nestled on her pillow.

Her scent lingered in this room and this eased his headache a lot. He almost didn’t feel it anymore now.

Cane spent a good few seconds staring at her and then walked closer, as he shook her shoulder, but she swatted his hand away and curled her body even more, until her knees touched her forehead.

"Wake up," Cane said, as he shook her shoulder again. _{frёewebηovel.cѳm}

Iris mumbled something and swatted his hand away again and this time, she pulled the blanket over her head to cover her face. "Too... bright."

Cane knitted his brows, he looked at the curtains and walked across the room to draw them apart, so there would be more light illuminating the room before he approached Iris and mercilessly pulled away the blanket that she was using to shield her eyes from the light.
